An update...what else should I call this?

I really do need to come up with some better post titles don't I???  My creative brain isn't very creative at the moment....anyway....I had my three weekly check up today, as well as an oncologist appointment at Box Hill Hospital yesterday.  Box Hill is my primary care hospital and they are the ones who made the referral for the clinical trial.  I hadn't been to an appointment there since starting on the trial as there really wasn't much they were/are doing treatment wise...but it was good to be able to go yesterday and chat with one of the main specialists who I had seen a couple of times previously...I felt it was good to be able to talk about how positive everything is going with the trial as I am sure it is difficult for the staff working in cancer care seeing people who may often be really unwell.  Today was another lovely visit to the Alfred as well...the main research assistant is on holidays so I saw her colleague who is also a lovely chap....though it sounds like he has been run off his feet being one person down...I also had a lovely chat with the Doctor who is looking after me so all in all was a positive day...my next CT scan is in 3 weeks so will have more of an update then.  After my appointment I visited one of my favourite shops as I had decided to take the afternoon off, instead of rushing back to work...so that was nice too...I popped in to a shop called the Essential Ingredient, which sell wonderful ingredients for all manner of cooking adventures, and then I popped into Zumbo for some macaron to take to work tomorrow as a treat.... Tonight I am going to my niece and nephews school production of Peter Pan so that will be fun....well, that is all I have to report for now...see you again soon.  The photo below was taken at a place called ArtVo...which I took my niece and nephew to the other week...it was great fun!
